Hi all,, I've recently purchased a steady 400 as a upgrade from my aluminium boat (a modified pearly miss) the boat came with a 2017 tohatsu 20hp low hours and a clean engine... The issue i got is i bought a brand new 15 hp tohatsu last year and was hoping to put that engine on it as its an efi and not carburettor as the 20hp... I haven't tried the boat on the water yet but was wondering if anyone on here has a steady 400 with a 15hp four-stroke? What speed would i expect? The aluminium boat would hit 20 knots wot with just me in the boat,,, i don't expect the steady 400 to reach anywhere near that but was hoping it would do about 14.... I know I should just try both but due to work commitments I am unable to till next year.. whats your opinions? Keep the 15, , keep the 20 or trade in both for a 30hp... a lot of questions I know but thanks a lot if any of you can help.
